In just 13 years, 1-800-Radiator has grown from a small $3 million company to one with over $70 million in revenue today. Our extremely effective Internet and franchise business model has enabled 1-800-Radiator to become the largest independent direct distributor in the country.
The Company has outperformed rivals by leveraging in-house, leading-edge computer systems to handle marketing, warehousing and purchasing. These unique, proprietary systems have allowed 1-800-Radiator to efficiently outmaneuver both local mom-and-pop competitors still using paper catalogs as well as larger, multi-unit enterprises.
At its corporate headquarters in the San Francisco Bay Area, 1-800-Radiator has a state-of-the-art 90-person call center that fields 10,000 phone calls per day from all 50 states. The company also sells more radiators on the Internet than any other enterprise, and is poised to expand its reach into many other automotive products. Its flagship Website, www.radiator.com, receives close to 100,000 visitors per month.
1-800-Radiator is expanding its franchise network rapidly and by 2009 expects to have close to 300 locations. The company receives 30 to 40 franchisee inquiries per day from its franchise Website, www.1800Radiator.com.
